Arctic Circle Construction

Construction Kicks off on our latest community health centre in the Canadian arctic

Another beautiful site for one of our projects: Arctic Bay, NU.
Construction work has started on our latest community health centre in the far north. Piles are going into the permafrost and we’re excited to see the next of our collaborations with Stantec (formerly FSC Architects & Engineers) come to fruition. The first, in Repulse Bay, was a template project, and this is the third community health centre providing primary care services and limited treatment/acute health services including emergency, radiology, pharmacy, lab, morgue, treatment and maternity rooms, exam rooms, PT/OT therapy room, dental operatory as well as individual and shared office and consultation spaces for community health practitioners (mental health, public health, home care, social work).
Nycum’s services as the Healthcare Architects included planning/programming; site evaluation & selection; building layout & conceptual design; interior planning; interior detailing; Furniture, Fittings and Equipment coordination & selection; interior design; construction administration & site review.
